THE MILLBROOK WEEKLY
Friday, 6 November. Issue 112

Good morning. A busy week for a small town. Here's what you need to know, in the same order as every Friday.


THIS WEEK

The Mill Street bridge reopened on Tuesday
Six weeks late and on budget. Cars only for now; the footpath opens once the railings pass inspection, likely before the end of the month.

Saturday market moves to the school car park
From 14 November until spring. Same hours, 8am to 1pm. Stallholders voted 31 to 9 for the move.

Library extends Thursday hours
Open until 8pm on Thursdays, starting next week. The council is trying it for three months.

New crossing on Elm Road
Approved at Monday's meeting after two years of requests from the primary school.
